"An exceptional health visitor"

About: Public Health Nursing / Health Visiting Service

(as a service user),

Catherine is an absolute credit to Northern Health and Social Care Trust. The care, time and kindness Catherine has shown my family and I, specifically my newborn daughter has been nothing short of brilliant. I have never had a health visitor like her.

The attention to detail and efficiency in Catherine coming to the conclusion my daughter had CMPA, has saved my daughter from weeks/months of agony! Catherine really cares about her babies and mums, making all the difference to a newly postpartum mum.

Not only is Catherine a fantastic health visitor, who deserves every bit of recognition she receives, she is also a fantastic person. Listens, understands, cares and tries her best to help with not only my daughter but also challenges that I have been having with my 5 year old son. 

The knowledge Catherine has, with her experience and alongside her kind and caring nature proves Catherine to be an exceptional health visitor who I have been and continue to be very grateful for.
